Abstract
Business Process Automation has been gaining increasing importance in the management of companies and organizations since it reduces the time needed to carry out routine tasks, freeing employees for other more creative and exciting things. The use of process automation seems to be a growing trend in the business's operational restructuring, combined with digital transformation. It can be applied in the most varied business areas. Organizations from any sector of activity can also adopt it. Given these benefits, the granted success in transforming business processes would be expected. However, 30 to 50% of automation initiatives with Robotic Process Automation technology fail. In this work, a set of guidelines will be proposed that will constitute, after validation, a framework capable of guiding organizations, with a focus on SMEs, in the procedure of automating their processes, thus obtaining the maximum return of this transformation.

Abstract
Our study provides valuable insights into the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and Human Resource Management (HRM). We have minimised bias and ensured reliable findings by employing a systematic literature review and the PRISMA statement. Our comprehensive syn-thesis of the studies included in this research, along with a bibliometric analysis of articles, journals, indexes, authors' affiliations, citations, keyword co-occurrences, and co-authorship analysis, has produced robust results. The discussion of our findings focuses on critical areas of interest, such as AI and Talent, AI Bias, Ethics and Law, and their impact on Human Resource (HR) management. Our research highlights the recognition by organisations of the importance of talent management in achieving a competitive advantage as higher-level skills become increas-ingly necessary. Although some HR managers have adopted AI technology for talent acquisition, our study reveals that there is still room for improvement. Our study is in line with previous research that acknowledges the potential for AI to revolutionise HR management and the future of work. Our findings emphasise the need for HR managers to be proactive in embracing technology and bridging the technological, human, societal, and governmental gaps. Our study contributes to the growing body of AI and HR management knowledge, providing essential insights and rec-ommendations for future research. The importance of our study lies in its focus on the role of HR in promoting the benefits of AI-based applications, thereby creating a larger body of knowledge from an organisational perspective.

Abstract
As technology continues to evolve, organizations face growing and complex challenges and opportunities that affect their ability to govern, manage and harness data as a key source of competitive advantage. Equally, data are considered a powerful and unique source of success for organizations, which in turn, can impact their decision-making capabilities and play a critical role in their success. Hence, this article aims to provide a detailed identification, analysis and discussion over the current data governance context and its existing frameworks, highlighting their commonalities, differences and gaps, including ones related to data governance relationship with Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI). This article conducts an extensive methodological and in-depth analysis over a set of sixteen data governance frameworks based on different key data governance attributes, denoting that although there are numerous frameworks, they hold weaknesses, limitations and challenges which prevent them from being capable of incorporating and governing the use and management of AI, particularly the demands originating from GenAI. Our findings provide and propose a new and enhanced data governance framework which integrates the best features and ideas from the existing ones and initiatives derived from the advancements and particularities of AI and GenAI models, systems, and overall usage. © 2026 by the authors.
